SEATTLE -- About 500 protesters marched through downtown Seattle Saturday, venting their frustration over President Bush's re-election and calling for United States troops to be pulled out of Iraq.

Protesters, organized by the anti-war group Not in Our Name, said they felt compelled to air their beliefs about Iraq and the leadership of a president they feel does not represent their interests.

Some people watching from the sidelines told demonstrators they should quit complaining and accept the will of the voters.

Police on bicycles escorted demonstrators from Westlake Center to the Federal Building and back.

There were no reports of any arrests.

Another protest was planned for Jan. 20, the first day of the president's second term.
